Bullets make RBL think I’m Sri Lankan the way all they hearin is Syn holla/Sinhala!”

Orange407County/Synthesis: Really dope flow and rhyme schemes... One of the few verses I've read so far in the tourney that would sound dope in an audio battle... The "will-son, cast away" "reign, supreme" and closer were my favorite lines.

SiegeSupreme: Good rhyme schemes as well and some dope name flips... Really consistent from start to finish... "Feelin his script", "Came with the dresser", and your closer were some of my favorite lines...

Sucks that this matchup had to happen so early as both of you dropped a lot of tight shit... What the battle came down to me was who directed their bars towards their opponent more... Siege came direct from the get-go and never let up... OC/Syn's opening lines sounded cool and all, but in a battle this close, using lines glossing your past versus attacking your opponent can make a difference... Plus Siege was just a little more complex overall and it didn't hamper his execution.

Syn's had the crack the bracket line, which I thought was good, the reign supreme line was aight, and the under siege / stevan segal line was nice. the fruit off the roof / plum it line was really good. and like sd said, the verse would be sick and/or sound dope on some audio ish...

SS had the magic trick line, the dojo hunting line, that whole garfield flip was nice, and even the break up county and sinhala lines stood out. Don't like reading battle verses with that sort of textual format, but, nonetheless, that shouldn't discredited his post.

I'm really not sure what every one else was seeing with SS. I did like the County line, but the rest of his verse was MAD STRETCHED OUT and the bars were weak. I mean magic trick, garfield, stand/dresser. Those were some BASIC punches. I saw those back in like '99. OC had nice verse, but I didn't like his structure. It seems he is more into audio now days then text. If his structure was like his last 2 lines it would've been better, but he had enough to get the W, IMO.

a lot of audio filter nonsense, but he had some good lines, i didn't really like anything from siege, even the county line was obvious, i'da use it too, but just to make line limit, not the centerpiece off my verse... it's just an occupier punch. iono, not a blowout but not that close either.

and I'd you makeit to next round leave the red color and / wordplay here, it just screams anal sex with men..

Synthesis definitely had a good flow and some good hitting punches. Siege I've seen the wordplays on your verse before and was flipped better. Also a lot of nameplays.. Need more variety in the verse imo

Orange County/ Synthesis: cool flow. punches were pretty bland/ not really directed at Siege. the rhyming was spot on, agree with SD about the audio bit. IMO the punches were pretty weak overall.

Siege- lemme just say that putting quotes around phrases was annoying as fuck... lol. your flow wasn't as smooth as Syn, but this was definitely more of a battle verse. punches were directed at him and i chuckled a couple times.

say past, cuz i used to run this league in a fascist way

Punchlines like “twin blades!”murder whatever “Syn says/senseis..you’d think I was goin Dojo huntin’!i get where ur going... but dojo huntin?

vote - Synthesis

All around better verse.. i dnt think people really read for the Content... when u actually read what the person is saying most lines yall dont be pretty decent... Syn had a good verse imo... his wording decent but the mini schemes he had were pretty funny and endend on a good note.... the plummet line was a simple but yet makes u giggle a little the lotb was the chants w/ syn imo but the one night stand was pretty decent also....
Siege i think i brokedown in ya berse how i felt bout you... come w/ slicker concepts cuz ya wording is decent just need new material

Really dope match-up. I though both competitors had a good flow and structure to their verse, but I thought SiegeSupreme edged him in effective punches. His punches were better crafted than Synthesis. I did like the will son cast away, and the fruit plum it lines, but they weren't as good as some of the name flips and punches from Siege.
